we, humans, are creatures of habit

a) the most pragmatic, rational (IMHO) response to the rhetorical questions of "why do old habits die hard"? and "why do people resist change"?

b) a nicer way of telling someone "no matter how hard you try to change someone they will always retain part of their individuality and be what they want to be"
a teenage boy comes crying to his father : "why won't my girlfriend Meredith follow me to Concordia University in Mechanical Engineering; all she wants to do is go to Mcgill University and do Psychology. Is there anything I can do? Should I commit a St Valentines Day Massacre on her?

father: no and no. No, she doesn't deserve that you commit a St Valentines Day Massacre on her, and no, you can't do a rat's ass about it, simply because the cherry-phrase we, humans, are creatures of habit applies not only to her, but everyone else in the world as well.
